The New England Patriots will have all available hands on deck against the Cincinnati Bengals, and that includes running back Rhamondre Stevenson. The 27-year-old is expected to make his comeback on Sunday after missing the previous three games because of a toe injury, according to multiple reports.

Stevenson started the Patriots first eight games of the season, carrying the ball 83 times for 279 yards with three touchdowns and three fumbles. He also caught 16 passes for 169 yards.

Ahead of the team’s Week 9 game versus the Atlanta Falcons, however, he popped up on the Patriots’ injury report. He...

There’s a long list of people who deserve credit for the New England Patriots’ complete turnaround in 2025. Buried deep on the casual fans’ list is wide receivers coach Todd Downing, who does most of his work out of the spotlight.

Downing has been on NFL staffs since 2001, working his way up the system the old-fashioned way. He made several stops on the way to becoming Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel’s offensive coordinator with the Tennessee Titans in 2021 and 2022.

Wide receiver Stefon Diggs says Downing is one of the reasons he chose to come to Foxboro in...

The New England Patriots will be back in Cincinnati this week, trying to repeat last year’s upset win over the Bengals. The biggest difference this time around is that the club is anything but an underdog: at 9-2, they have enjoyed a significantly better season than their 3-7 opponent.

So, what has been going on with the Bengals? To find out more about the Patriots’ Week 12 opponent, we spoke with Anthony Cosenza of Pats Pulpit’s sister site Cincy Jungle, the SB Nation community for all things Bengals.

Here is what he told us about the upcoming game and opponent....

In his first year as the New England Patriots‘ head coach, Mike Vrabel has completely transformed the team. After winning just four games last season, Vrabel has come in and immediately turned things around, as the team is riding an ongoing eight-game win streak that has pushed their record to 9-2.

One of the main goals Vrabel set for himself in year No. 1 with New England was to change the culture within the building at 1 Patriot Place. Vrabel wanted the Pats to play the sort of hard-nosed style of football they used to play during their dynastic run...

The New England Patriots will be taking on the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 12, and when they do, they won’t have star defensive tackle Milton Williams at their disposal. As a result, the team turned to the practice squad for reinforcements before this game.

Early in the team’s Week 11 win over the New York Jets, Williams suffered an ankle injury that forced him out of the game. Reports indicated Williams suffered a high ankle sprain, which usually takes four to six weeks to recover from, leading the team to place Williams on injured reserve.

The good news is that...

The New England Patriots packed an extra layer for the trip to Paycor Stadium.

The organization elevated defensive tackle Jeremiah Pharms Jr. from the practice squad ahead of Sunday’s game against the Cincinnati Bengals.

Pharms, 29, made the initial 53-man roster before being waived on the eve of September’s season opener. After going unclaimed, he agreed to remain in Foxborough as part of the practice squad. The 6-foot-2, 300-pound defensive lineman has appeared in 28 games during his tenure. A handful of starts have arrived along the way.

Originally joining the Patriots prior to training camp in 2022, Pharms stands...

After multiple days of speculation, the Cincinnati Bengals have decided who they will start at quarterback against the New England Patriots on Sunday. According to various reports, Joe Flacco will draw the start while franchise QB Joe Burrow will not be activated off injured reserve.

Flacco, 40, has served as the Bengals’ starting QB for the last five weeks. Originally acquired via trade from the Cleveland Browns in October, he has since completed 135 of 213 pass attempts (63.4%) for 1,453 yards with 12 touchdowns and three interceptions. Despite posting some solid numbers, Cincinnati won just one of his starts...

New England Patriots rookie wide receiver Kyle Williams finally broke out in the team’s Week 10 upset vs. the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, hauling in a 72-yard touchdown pass from Drake Maye.

The third-round pick followed the effort up with arguably the worst game of his first season in Week 11 vs. the New York Jets, however, failing to catch any of his career-high three targets.

Patriots reporter Andrew Callahan of the Boston Herald revealed “53 thoughts on the Patriots’ 53 active players” on Saturday morning, saying that he wouldn’t be surprised if Williams is inactive for the first time this...

Cincinnati Bengals fans will reportedly have to wait at least one more game to welcome back star quarterback Joe Burrow.

“Joe Burrow (toe) will not play against the Patriots,” senior NFL insider Dianna Russini of The Athletic posted on Bluesky Saturday morning. “League sources say that the Bengals made the decision Friday to roll with Joe Flacco for another week, with the hope that Burrow will return to the lineup Thanksgiving night against the Ravens.”

“Bengals QB Joe Burrow, attempting to come back just over two months after surgery to repair Grade 3 turf toe, won’t be moved to the...

The Cleveland Browns will be running out their third starting quarterback of the season on Sunday when they start Shedeur Sanders against the Las Vegas Raiders.

Sanders took the field at the beginning of the second half during Cleveland’s Week 11 game, which ended in a 23-16 defeat to the Baltimore Ravens. He replaced Dillon Gabriel as the starting quarterback after a concussion sidelined Gabriel.

Sanders didn’t have a strong performance, completing four of 16 passes for 47 yards, and didn’t lead the Browns to any points in the second half.

However, Sanders now has a full week of practice...
